It does look bad. Train came to a stop right by the trackside wall of the waiting room, right next to the doors. It also looks like there's a partial collapse of the train shed. |

The bumper block couldn't stop the train at low speeds, WTF?Train couldn't have speeding though those maze of switches entering Hoboken Terminal without derailing I'd imagine. But Man, the actual train went into the waiting room, sounds like something straight out of a movie! |

Pascack Train 1614, which was 5 minutes late. A lot of structural damage and collapses to the canopy and beams surrounding.Exactly 24 hours before, I walked right past there from track 16 to PATH. |

So there are fatalities in the later reports, but we'll need to see the breakdown between persons on the train and persons in the station. Railcar looks almost completely intact so it clearly did its job. |

It might have been a "perfect storm" of circumstances:It's possible the engineer had a heart attack and died instantly just at the exact point where the train could go to its highest possible speed without signals and other things. |

NJT was speculating early-on of a slick substance on rails. It is possible for the dead man control to not work as anticipated with an incapacitated engineer, as we saw on Spuyten Duyvil |
